Your mind and body unite when you are truly 100 percent grateful. When this happens, those around you become happier. If you live your life with a heart of gratitude for the blessings heaven has given you, I think you will be able to create even more joy among those around you, and you will be able to spread these blessings to your family, society, nation and world.

The teacher who is closest to you is your own, original mind. Your original mind is more valuable than your closest friend, yes, even more valuable than your father or mother. You should learn to listen to what your original mind tells you. This is the state you must achieve.

You should take your time to experience joy with your mind. For others, it may seem like you are all alone; but during this time you should befriend your mind. Sit down with your mind in a quiet place and meditate. Then you will be put into a deep state of prayer. In this way, you will enter a world that no one but you knows. You need such experiences.

Das menschliche Gemüt besteht aus geistigem Gemüt und physischem Gemüt. Das Verhältnis der beiden Gemüter entspricht dem von Sông Sang und Hyông Sang. Wenn sie durch Geben und Empfangen mit Gott im Mittelpunkt eins werden, bilden sie eine als Einheit fungierende Wesenheit, die das Geistige Selbst und das Physische Selbst dazu anleitet, ein harmonisches Verhältnis einzugehen und den Schöpfungszweck zu verwirklichen. Diese vereinigte Wesenheit bezeichnen wir als Gemüt eines Menschen.

As long as our mental and physical temperament is subject to the bondage of Satan, the functional being, which is formed in giving and receiving, must be called an evil temperament. The evil temperament incessantly drives man to do evil. Our original temperament and our conscience prompt us to reject the evil temperament. They lead us, with desperate effort, to deny evil desire and to hold on to good, tearing apart the shackles of Satan and turning to God.

Ein Geistiges Selbst reift als göttlicher Geist zur Vollendung, wenn sich Geistiges Selbst und Physisches Selbst eines Menschen durch vollkommenes, auf Gott ausgerichtetes Geben und Empfangen vereinigen und die Vier-Positionen-Grundstruktur bilden.

Can the absolute God be sad? Can the all-knowing and all-powerful God avoid sadness? Can He understand sorrow? These are serious questions that I cannot take lightly. We cannot maintain the belief that the absolute God can be the Father of humanity and yet never experience sorrow. Here, there would be a logical contradiction, as this would fundamentally distance God, the Father, from His children who possess intellect, feeling, and will, and who experience feelings of joy, anger, suffering, and pleasure.

There is nothing I do that my conscience does not know about; it sees everything. The conscience objects whenever the body schemes to do something wrong.

Dear guests, don’t give your conscience any more grief. Don’t disobey its call. Disobeying the voice of your conscience only brings sorrow to your heart. It brings sorrow to your parents, to your teachers, and even to God.
